Memo to self:

'xset r rate 250 30' good.

'xset r rate 30 250' bad.

Inadvertently typing the latter makes it ... challenging ... to retype the command correctly.

Not impossible!  But very challenging.

Hee. I've just gotten into an argument with the Ubuntu ATI driver. Some open source developers can be just as difficult as Microsoft marketing.

On the other hand, the Windows port of my thesis project came up & worked today! Now I just have to write an installer.
